Press Releases: Each year, we issue dozens of press releases,
media advisories and tip sheets reporting university
accomplishments, including grants received, new academic programs, conferences and upcoming events and other
faculty and student achievements. We also regularly contact local and regional media representatives about feature
stories on campus.
Press Conferences and Media Interviews: Press conferences represent one way to handle a major
announcement of interest to several reporters. These announcements often relate to major donations to the
University, represent a significant change in policy, procedure or administration or serve as a medium by
which the University President may make a statement to a variety of reporters at one time.
Responses to reporters: University Relations staff members frequently receive
media queries looking for campus experts to comment on a variety of subjects. The staff arranges
media interviews and photographs with University staff and faculty.
Speakers Bureau: University Relations staff members frequently receive queries
from the community looking for faculty and staff experts to speak on a variety of subjects. The
staff arranges the speaking engagements.
Internal communications: If you have a story idea, contact the Office of
University Relations.
